NEW: Splash & Dash

What is the SPLASH & DASH?

Specially designed for 6 year old Kiwi kids, the Splash & Dash will see our budding TRYathlete’s complete a 50m swim followed by a 1500m run, before crossing the finish line to receive their champion’s medal from one of New Zealand’s’ top sporting stars.

The Splash & Dash is the perfect preparation for the full TRYathlon.

Spaces are strictly limited so make sure you enter today. Participants must be 6 years old on the day of the event to be eligible to participate. Wellington AM & PM also invite 7 year olds to sign up to the Splash & Dash.

All TRYathletes are eligible for spot prizes (must attend prizegiving).

The course:

Swim: The swim is 50m long. Kickboards will be available and there will be lifeguards in the water at all times. Children will be able to touch the bottom and stand-up and during the swim.

Transition: On completing the swim they will then run into the Transition area, change into their shoes, towel and their Weet-Bix event T-Shirt (which you would have laid out for them prior to the event starting) Our Haier Help team will be on hand in the transition area to assist them getting changed and tying their shoelaces. Parents will also be able to run alongside their children from the swim and into the transition area where they can assist them getting changed.

Run: The children will then complete the 1500 run, on their own, to complete the Splash & Dash, and receive their champions medal. Parents will be able to wait at the finish line to cheer them on.
